New Q&A

[Mahdi]

Director John Harrison has answered a new Q & A, this one focusing on shields at the miniseries site.

"Q: Will the personal shields have a unique look or will they look like the ones shown in the David Lynch film?

A: The body shields will be quite a bit different from the Lynch film. Ours are much more subtle and realistic, I believe. "Slow on attack, fast on defense." This was the principal that guided the shield's design. And when you see what Ernie Farino and his special effects teams came up with, I'm sure you'll agree how effective they seem."

Did you like Lynch's cubic shields? Or would you prefer them to kind of shimmer when activated and when they come into contact with something, the rest of the time being mostly invisible like Frank Herbert described them?
